IMO, I wish that there were a ruleset/game tools when going through Spectate mode, like the following:
  • Styles: Time, Stock or Stamina.
  • Time Limit.
  • Stage Selection.
  • 1 Vs. 1, 2 Vs. 2, 3 or 4 players fighting against each other individually.
  • Where they're playing from, such as USA, Turkey, Japan, Brazil, etc.
Like when going through the regular Smash mode.

I can't get any added spirits apart from FE and Cuphead since 1,367. They just don't show up in the shop or spirit board. Aren't they supposed to since their events have ended?

This is a dumb question but the search feature wasn't very forthcoming with answers... Are there any recommendations for 3rd party GameCube controller adapters? I can't seem to find the official one in the Nintendo online store so I'm guessing they stopped producing them?

I'm not sure what they are doing with their official products (but someone said they might make more adapters in the future but I don't know if I would put a faith in it. since they are pretty bad at restocking)

I don't know anything about third party so sorry I can't help you out on that.

Can't really help with a 3rd party adapter recommendation, but Amazon JP is a good place to score the official adapter and controller. Nintendo is still producing these accessories, they're just not getting supplied in many areas (like the US for example). Amazon JP restocked in January. I believe there's another round due for March-April. I just looked and it seems that they sold out of their back orders. Still, keep your eyes there. Stock pops back in from time to time.

The past week or so I've had really good luck with randoms in Battle Arenas. Consistently getting low latency matches with people around my skill level. I'm not sure how the matchmaking can so often given me shitty connections and people well outside my skill range.

Hey Era,

I am running my first online Smash Tournament this month, Jun 27-28th! This is a global online tourney and the winners receive a Smash Ultimate Commemorative coin! Registration is free and I already have some skilled players signed up from USA, NL, Belgium, Mexico, and other countries. To try and ensure good connections, we are verifying which players will use ethernet adapters and giving them more favorable seeding. So if you are on WiFi, you will have a tougher path to Grand Finals. I know many of you are really solid competitors and am trying to source players of this caliber to make it an event to remember! If you are stuck at home the last weekend of june, please join us and Settle it Inside!


Register for free here!

I'd also like to ask for some advice setting up the stream, I have friends with capture cards and am trying to figure out how to stream everyone's commentary on one twitch channel without being twitch affiliates/partners. Thanks, I am also competing, so see you in bracket!

Guys, I need some help understanding how to play Smash. My background are 2d fighters, where even though I don't consider myself a good player, I still have some basic notions on what I'm supposed to do, but here in Smash I'm in blank. For example, I don't really know how to attack an opponent since I feel that all my attacks are unsafe. Also I don't know how to position myself within the game. And others things that I'm probably not aware

I main Lucina, and here are some videos of me playing

You might get more answers if you come to the Smash thread in the main forum. That's where we all hang out.

So I booted Smash yesterday and there was a notification about some kind of an European online qualifier taking place in-game on the 16th of this month.
Anyone has more info on this?

I don't think NoE have announced anything on social media yet. It'll be using the online tourney qualifier mode only available in Japan and the US before now.

EDIT: Scratch that, they've posted the rules already:

Is the discord still a thing? I think I left it by accident a while ago.

Edit: Huh, I guess I'm not the only one

I'm also looking to get back on the discord. I definitely don't think I left it, but for some reason I don't have it anymore?

When did Sephiroth every carry his fake ass long sword backwards like a ninja? Looks dumb. Also, beat his punk ass in 7 seconds.

Haha, I can see I wasn't the only one who was kicked from the Discord server. I knew I was inactive but I love peeking in there every once in awhile. : )

I bought this game more than 1 year ago. So far I have played maybe a total of 3 hours . I am not an alien to fighting game, I am like average at tekken and street fighter but this game is not clicking at all for me . To be fair it's my first smash game ever but it feels very strange for me playing this game, like I can't tell what the hell is happening. Any tips would be welcome because I don't want to give up on this game just yet .

This thread here is pretty dead so come on over to the DLC discussion thread. That's basically a universal Smash talking spot.
